The future of the DeKalb County Rehab and Nursing Center is still unclear after Tuesday's state review board meeting. The Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review Board is tasked with deciding on whether to approve the transfer of the DeKalb county-run nursing home to private hands, but instead the board decided to delay the vote — again.
